Dinner Suit

Young looks in mohair stretch qualities, new and diffuse colours ranging from deepest dark fuchsia to dark dolphin shades are new colour topics for this festive segment. The idea of a party staged in a billiard bar, gives a new twist to the theme of festivitiy. Unusual stylings with tattoos and casual snapshots modernise the CLASSICS range. The topic of glamour, which is rather a topic of party than spirit of the time, is the counterpoint to the casualisation of the times of Covid.

Black Tie

A dinner suit is the most formal version of a suit. In America it is called "tuxedo". A black, single-breasted dinner suit with a shawl collar is the right choice for social events after 6 pm - also in double-breasted and fashionable versions and new colours. Young dinner suit alternatives are trending which is strikingly proven by the WILVORST collection COOL CLASSICs.

The dinner jacket either has a shawl collar or peak lapel - also double-breasted styles are popular and from time to time they get trendy when they are worn in a hip dandy style. However, the classic styles are the single-breasted ones. Ideally, the dinner trousers are plain and colour-coordinated with the dinner jacket because the dinner suit outfit should not be too striking. The matching dinner trousers are without turn-ups and pleats, mostly with two gallon stripes.

Modern dinner trousers are meanwhile common usage in slim fits and without pleats. Every man - no matter what age - finds his perfect dinner suit after his fancy in the WILVORST offer.

Dinner suit as a new trending wedding suit

Normally, there are stringent dress code rules for dinner suits, however, these relax more and more and the motto "anything goes" prevails. This is why dinner suits get more popular as wedding suits, because dinner suits are very formal and therefore many a groom chooses one as perfect wedding suit to shine next to his bride. However, you shouldn't wear a dinner suit as a wedding suit in all social circles, as in some families the formalised dress codes are strictly adhered to. In those cases the morning coat is the appropriate attire for a very formal wedding in the morning.

Did you know that due to their formal and exclusive appearance dinner suits have become one of the latest and most popular wedding suits? Meanwhile quite a few young couples choose a trendy dinner suit as their wedding outfit.

WILVORST – dinner suits and matching accessories in the best quality for formal events

A dinner suit is a very elegant suit which, in general, is worn at very formal events like a visit to the opera, evening gala, wedding or other events with the dress code "black tie". Dinner suits can look back on a long history. As early as in the middle of the 19th century the dinner jacket became socially acceptable as an elegant and at the same time comfortable evening attire. At the end of the 1930s the evening tailcoat was replaced by the dinner suit at most events. A dinner suit consists of a jacket, trousers, shirt, shoes, socks and accessories. The classic dinner jacket is either a single-breasted or double-breasted black jacket with no back vent. It is coordinated with black trousers with no turn-ups and with a simple stripe. The dress shirt is primarily characterised by double cuffs with straight edges. The dress shirt which goes with a dinner suit either has a turn-down collar or the traditional wing collar. The shirt should be white, however, a light ecru is possible, too. Accessories include bowties, ties, cummerbunds or waistcoats. The ties have only recently become an appropriate alternative to bowties. Often the waistcoat is low-cut but it is only part of the dinner suit if the jacket is single-breasted. The same holds true for the less formal cummerbund. A double-breasted jacket always has to be worn closed so that neither a waistcoat nor a cummerbund are necessary. Black shoes with a thin leather sole round off the outfit.
